Raw results: Sept. 20, 2021
Universal Champion Roman Reigns & SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos def. The New Day
The New Day came into Monday Night Raw fired up to celebrate their new WWE Champion, Big E. After reveling in the glory, they quickly shifted their focus to The Bloodline and Paul Heyman to set the stage for this huge Six-Man Tag Team Match.
Chaos ensued when “The All Mighty” Bobby Lashley burst onto the scene to lay waste to E, Kingston and The Usos, leading to Reigns hitting Woods with big Spear to earn the win for The Bloodline. Lashley wasn’t done there, however, as he proceeded to drop The Head of the Table with a Spear of his own, following that up with another vicious Spear to the WWE Champion, this time through the barricade.
Doudrop def. Eva Marie
Eva Marie aimed to bounce back in action against her former protege, Doudrop, but it was not meant to be for the leader of the Eva-Lution. Eva talked the talk right before the match, hurling some heinous insults her opponent’s way, but she could not walk the walk as Doudrop finished her with another big crossbody to vanquish Eva yet again.
Raw Tag Team Champion Randy Orton def. AJ Styles
The war between Raw Tag Team Champion RK-Bro and AJ Styles & Omos continued as The Viper battled The Phenomenal One. After Omos was ejected from ringside for getting involved, the back-and-forth action led to Orton finally connecting with a swift RKO to earn the emphatic victory.
Shayna Baszler def. Nia Jax
Tensions finally boiled over between the former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, and the fierce in-ring action ended when Shayna Baszler locked Nia Jax in the Kirifuda Clutch for the win. The Queen of Spades wasn’t just satisfied with the victory though, as she continued her assault on The Irresistible Force after the bell by viciously stomping Jax’s arm multiple times against the steel stairs.
Angel Garza & Humberto Carrillo def. Mansoor & Mustafa Ali
Cousins decided to team up as Angel Garza & Humberto Carrillo made their Raw tag team debut against the budding duo of Mansoor & Mustafa Ali. Garza & Carrillo got off to a great start as they displayed some unique offense to overcome Mansoor & Ali in an impressive first outing as a team.
Rhea Ripley & Nikki A.S.H. def. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Natalya & Tamina
It was time for Rhea Ripley & Nikki A.S.H. to show what they could do with championship gold on the line against WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Natalya & Tamina. In the midst of a hard-fought battle, A.S.H. rolled up Natalya, and The Nightmare and The Almost Superhero were left standing as the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
Raw Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair played mind games of her own with Alexa Bliss
Alexa’s Playground was quick to get very tense as Raw Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair joined the set. Much to Alexa Bliss’ dismay, The Queen took the opportunity to destroy her “Charly” doll, tearing the head right off, and was even looking to make Lilly suffer the same fate. Bliss fended off the Raw Women’s Champion before she could do any further damage ahead of their title match at WWE Extreme Rules.
Jeff Hardy def. Sheamus to be added to the United States Championship Match at WWE Extreme Rules
Jeff Hardy got exactly what he wanted from this bout, as he took it to Sheamus from the start. After a see-saw battle, The Charismatic Enigma seized the opportunity and defeated The Celtic Warrior with a sudden sunset flip to be added to the United States Championship Match at WWE Extreme Rules, making it a Triple Threat Match with Damian Priest.
Following the match, The Archer of Infamy and Sheamus reengaged their rivalry with a heated brawl resulting in their separation by a number of WWE officials.
Universal Champion Roman Reigns def. WWE Champion Big E and Bobby Lashley in a Triple Threat Match
This colossal Raw main event stemmed from Bobby Lashley’s interference in The New Day’s matchup against The Bloodline earlier in the night.
After E connected with a Big Ending on Reigns, The All Mighty brought a steel chair into play, launching a brutal assault on the WWE Champion that culminated in The Head of the Table hitting Lashley with a big-time Spear to close the deal and leave Raw victorious.
It’s a New Day celebration, yes, it is!
